How often should I replace the tortoise substrate?

I'm using Zoo Med Eco Earth expandable substrate.

I only change it completely when I change enclosures. Otherwise just spot clean, and add new when needed.

Personally I change it every 6-12 months.

A very warm welcome to the forum!

Would you please post pics of your tort and his/her enclosure?

Every how long - more or less - would that be @Jodie ?

I change mine when i spring clean, but not sure it's necessary even then.

Anywhere from a year to several years.
